I was reading somewhere, can't remember where. It said that umpires working the scissors developed neck problems. That the stance makes you tilt your head in an unnatural way. Has any one else heard of this. I also heard MLB is keeping track of foul balls hit off the mask to see if this has anything to do with umpires developing neck problems. I heard that Mark Carlson had surgery that he believes is a result of foul balls.
